Next stage in his attempts at psychological warfare is calling it a Jeep.

Hysterical - he went on to say that he would also like truck too. Then he went on to say he is thinking of getting a Toyota C-HR.
This is war!

It could have been worse, he could have called it a Jeep!
Although if he thinks a Toyota C-HR is a truck he must have real issues distinguishing size.Andy
So the corollary would be that a jeep is a de-glorified Land Rover. Probably about right then!A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill. It does reduce the likelyhood of you dying when really, really ill. Stay Alive - KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE.

I always thought people who refer to their vehicles by it's make were a bit Naff, for instance when I was courting my mate always used to say to the girls do you want a lift in my Jag, it was a Jag but a real beat up one but it did the trick.
Then there's the ones that say do you want a lift in my Disco, Range Rover etc, it still sounds a bit Naff to me.
I don't offer people lifts other than to mates and I always refer to mine as a Vehicle.
I can't imagine anyone trying to pull by saying to a girl - do you want a lift in my Corsa or Fiat 124

Well, I'll tell you an ancient joke, as it would not be 'off topic' for once...
There is a guy sitting in a pub and this bloke walks in, throws his keys on a table, sits down and
orders a pint. Five minutes later the most beautifull girls flock around him and at the end of the
night he takes one home. This happens day after day, and our [lonely] guy gets curious for the
bloke's secret. So the next day he walks up to the guy before the first girls arrive....
The bloke replies to his question : "..just get a keyhanger from a posh car and throw it on the table,
the rest goes like clockwork..".
So our guy gets online a Porsche key-ring, ties it to his keys and throws them on the table in the bar...
He repeats this day after day, but not a single girl comes to his table, while the bloke remains successfull
each and every night...
So after a week our guy walks up to the bloke again and simply asks him "..WHY.. "
The bloke giggles and says...
hih...
hihih...
hihihih...
..".. it would help if you would not keep your moped helmet on.."
